Sea Ray Sundancer 38

The 2008 Sea Ray Sundancer 38 is a highly regarded express cruiser that blends strong diesel performance, refined Sea Ray craftsmanship, and confident handling in a versatile platform. Designed for comfortable cruising, entertaining, and extended weekends aboard, this Sundancer delivers a smooth, stable ride with the power and efficiency only diesel propulsion can provide.

This vessel is powered by twin Cummins QSB 5.9-liter, 6-cylinder inline turbocharged diesel engines, producing 380 HP each and showing 1,456 hours. These engines are well known for their durability, fuel efficiency, and torque, making them ideal for both coastal cruising and longer runs. The pod drive system with joystick control dramatically simplifies docking and close-quarters maneuvering, offering precise, intuitive handling even in tight marinas.

Helm & Navigation

The helm is thoughtfully laid out with excellent visibility and a complete electronics suite designed for confident navigation in a wide range of conditions: Raymarine radar provides enhanced situational awareness in fog, rain, or nighttime operation. Garmin GPS/chartplotter delivers accurate positioning, detailed charts, waypoint management, and route planning. Standard Horizon marine VHF radio ensures reliable communication and safety on the water.

Cockpit & Exterior

The cockpit is spacious, functional, and ideal for entertaining, featuring generous wraparound seating, a comfortable helm area, and an open layout that encourages socializing while underway or at anchor. Wide walkways and the integrated swim platform make boarding, swimming, and line handling easy and safe.

Interior & Accommodations

Below deck, the Sundancer 38 showcases Sea Ray's signature attention to fit and finish. The bright and inviting cabin offers a practical and comfortable layout, including a forward berth with ample storage, mid-cabin sleeping area for guests, well-equipped galley for extended stays, comfortable salon seating, and an enclosed head with shower. This layout makes the boat equally suited for day cruising, overnight trips, or extended weekends aboard.
